puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted February 20, 2021 I will be watching... bounce back game? I don't expect them to beat FL, but so long as they try, I am still proud of them. So sad to lose their beloved Cheeka. Let's win for him, shall we, guys? LGRW!!! 2 Y19 and MabusIncarnate reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TLGTrico 622 Report post Posted February 20, 2021 I'm making a conscience decision not to watch this because of helm being on the top line Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MabusIncarnate 5,344 Report post Posted February 20, 2021 Yeah Helm on the top line is something else, I don't even know what to think. Bernier with the start, here we go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LGRW!!! +1 Win or lose, I just want to see them put up a good fight and play a game they don't need to head home embarrassed about. Woah! Deke back in?

Woah! Deke back in? Was not expecting that It looks like they are running 7 D tonight with DeKeyser back, Merril, Djoos, Hronek, Biega, Staal, and Nemeth are all in this game. I guess they told him he can play, but if he starts feeling like the injury is nagging, they can pull him and run without being shorthanded on D. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Austrianwing 71 Report post Posted February 20, 2021 Suppose it would not hurt, big picture, to get DeKeyser back into game shape. Just not so sure that will actually happen with his back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MabusIncarnate 5,344 Report post Posted February 20, 2021 I'm really baffled by how Bernier never found a long term starter job on any team he's been on before coming here. He's consistently great, he rarely lets in bad goals and he keeps us in every single game he plays in. I don't get it. 3 Austrianwing, chaps80 and 13dangledangle reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Y19 2,488 Report post Posted February 20, 2021 Well, better 1st period than yesterday. Yeah, it's a low bar, but ... baby steps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Austrianwing 71 Report post Posted February 20, 2021 Yeah, it was better, and happy to see that after last night. I just can't wrap my head around this power-play though. On the rare occasions that they manage to enter the zone and set up, it is just sooo tentative, listless and predictable. I know it isn't exactly a team stacked with offensive superstars, but it is really just amazingly bad even considering the roster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,518 Report post Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) He just blew by Larkin on the celly but then realized Larkin did all the work so he went back in for the hug haha. You love to see it. Really though, I like Brome. He’s a gritty little bastard and he scored there because he’s not afraid to play in the hard areas.

Get him going, now that he has that first goal out of the way, and Bert comes back, that's a pretty decent top 2 lines of Bert - Larkin - Mantha and Ryan - Fabbri - Brome If they would pull their head out of their ass and sit our geezer line, we could have something like Namestnikov - Svechnikov - Hirose and Erne - Glendening - Smith and cycle out Helm, Gagner, Filppula, and Nielsen.
